in south carolina, small businesses make up half of our economy. sadly, these hardworking business owners have been suffering devastating setbacks due to the president's job-destroying policies. more recently, the failed implementation of obamacare has forced higher taxes and extensive regulations on these employers. this unfriendly business climate has prevented small business owners from expanding and creating jobs. while traveling in south carolina's second congressional district, i continuously hear from small business, the national federation of independent business and employees who are plagued with uncertainty. smaller paychecks, inability to meet insurance requirements and reduced hours are some of the concerns. congress must work together to replace obamacare with commonsense solutions that has long proposed by congressman tom price of georgia. in conclusion, god bless our troops and we will never forget september 11 and the war on terrorism. congratulations to steve spurrier and the president for the gamecock victory saturday. the speaker
